  1. there won't be any, just bug fixes, iirc EDIT: I don't believe there will be bonus material. The timeline we were given to finish the PC version is pretty short and does not include time for making changes to the interface other than fixing any bugs QA finds.
  2. I was up late when the story broke. At the time they reported 38 people dead.......

    You forgot about Gordon when you talked about their young guards. He is half the reason their winning these games. As for the trades, I guess you mean Artest and Crawford. Artest.....well, I think both teams lost in that trade. As for Crawford, we couldn't have kept him and Kirk, he just wasn't having it. He wasn't playing anything like he is now with the Knicks either (tho he got hurt recently) Don't forget about Williams and his motorcycle accident. You don't just lose your first round (second pick overall?) draft pick and shrug it off.
  4. I thought JE made clear awhile back it wasn't a CRPG

    I'm just happy Kobe was the one to miss the game winner. Made my day.
  6. Nothing like paying an extra 10 dollars to get content that should have been included at the start! A la PC. Think people, THINK!
  7. I hope they don't screw you over. They seem to be taking the "STEAM doesn't make mistakes" line of thought. ........do you think STEAM has become self-aware?
  8. I'm sorry. Did you call the police to report the crime?
  9. See thats what I was saying, minus me thinking he's cute (tho his eyes are dreamy ), he used to walk into a building and kill everyone. In S3, he just got captured every other episode.

    He will get better with time, remember the guy is still very young
  11. That never happened After my first play through, after the ending sequence, I was actually depressed. Literally depressed and unfulfilled. - dr cloak <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Kinda like the ending of Empire. We'll see, havn't played it myself

    Well, it's their own damn fault. So it's funny.
  14. I just thought it was a comical follow up to a discussion we had that ended well and was rationally discussed.
  15. self serving bureaucracies do not help the environment. remember, WE are part of the environment, too. stifling economic growth is tantamount to forcing poverty on us. You implied, without these measures, that the economy would be stifiled and poverty would be forced apon us. Which would be false. Why else add "stifling economic growth is tantamount to forcing poverty on us" to that blip? You also implied that by forcing poverty on us, we would be hurting the enviroment. As "WE" are part of the enviroment. Which doesn't take into account what other species would "gain". If you didn't mean to say either of those, you need to spend more time thinking about want you say and then typing it out clearly. I'm not sure anyone, even yourself, really knows exactly what you said. self serving bureaucracies do not help the environment. remember, WE are part of the environment, too. stifling economic growth is tantamount to forcing poverty on us. If you didn't mean to imply that why the hell did you post any of this? That is the only connecting factor in the above three sentances as soon as you learn them, I'd love to hear all about it The money national forest generate in tourism increases every year. Not to meantion other industries that get hurt by this, such as the salmon industry, as thier wild stocks decrease every year. Plus the reduced jobs for park rangers and enviromental anylasts, as these apparently detailed reports are no longer needed. There is NEVER just one economic line of effect of an action. It's a ripple in a pond, not a row of dominos. Surprised you didn't know that. Plus, since we are using "econimic" terms, there is lots of "Good Will", if I may, to be had from these species and areas. Meaning, not all gains are monetary. As well as, I assume this means nothing to you, the benifit of Biodiversity. Then of course you know of supply and demand, if you want to talk in basic terms, if the logging companies have access to more and cheaper wood, the prices of wood goes down, the logging companies make less per plank. This would mean they have more jobs, but likely pay these workers less. The gain isn't as incredible as you tried to make it appear. Specially after foreign markets react. Then of course, you have the possibl ecosts of enviroment clean up, and the cost of fighting lawsuits to establish their new claims, etc etc. Very little actually. Thats my point.......... You zealot! Are you saying it's ok to wipe out species to make a buck? Whos the fanatic now? Now lets talk reality: I wouldn't mind open more areas to logging nessasarily, but I don't want the needs of a species thats about to be wiped off the earth to be equal to how much money a logging company can make because: 1. Thats what this bill does. Endangered species are no longer considered a factor. It's the overall "health" of the forest that matters. Meaning, if the logging company can "prove" that the forest can get along without Mr. Spotty owl, they can go ahead and log. And there isn't any evidence to support Mr. Spotty Owl anymore, because the bill make such reports optional at best. The data would almost all most likely come from the logging company, which I have to assume, may not be the most unbiased source. 2. Without this measure, I assure you, our general standard of living would NOT decrease nor would the general strength of the economy. You won't feel much of a gain from this action either, besides logging companies getting a small stock jump On the news: Pacific Lumber Co/Maxxam (one of the bigger loggers in the US) "jumped" .62% on the news. You want to bet the effect of the bill is likely more or less now taken into account in the stock price? The "juice" isn't worth the squeeze. If it is, I'm scared to think what you view as "ok" for a company to do to make a dollar. Reduced FDA standards maybe? So, by not looking into how an action will effect the enviroment anymore, you now are looking at everyone interests? Funny that sounds to me like you are just looking into the loggers interests exclusively, as it only removed "bureaucracy" for them. Of course you call it bureaucracy, I call it protection. By not counting endangered species when decideding whether or not to open an area for loggin, thats fair? Thats balance? Nice try. I never once said or implied I take ELFs word over this guys. Both are extremists. Please only post actual points. Made up ones wastes everyone time. Now, if you read the article instead assuming to know what it says, a Rep. from NM (a state that would be effected) is very much apposed to this. My point is the only guy who wants this was the logging representative. I hope what you want me to re-evalute isn't based of your spotty info.

    use the old HDs to move data around
  17. You would be right......if the rabbits were the cause of said "poverty". But their not. We would be the cause of our own poverty in this case. Plus, to even suggest that leaving Clinton envirmental protections in place would somehow drive us all into poverty is foolish and shortsighted. Not that the National Park Service is all that great (most of their budget goes to building roads.....), but these measures are not helping to lessen the red tape for anything but logging companies.
  18. So what your saying is, we have to get nature before it gets us? I knew those rabbits were acting smug

    Branching off the other thread Considering their hardest stretch of schedule is behind them and their only 2.5 gmes back of a playoff spot ::knock on wood:: they got a shot at the playoffs in the East. Their beating good teams, and not "good" East teams, but Western conference teams. Ben Gordon is a machine and they got ROBBED at theend in that Dallas game btw.
  20. HA! I wish they could come up with a better name than ELF tho
  21. took you long enough
